Sui Dhaaga: Made in India, starring Varun Dhawan and Anushka Sharma in the lead roles, is doing stupendously well even in its second week at the box-office. The film, on its second Sunday, added Rs 4.35 crore more to its kitty. The growth from the second Friday, when the film earned Rs 1.75 crore, is 77.14 per cent. The film’s total collection, after a ten-day run, stands at Rs 71.70 crore, which implies that the film will cross the Rs 75 crore-mark today in all likelihood.
Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the film’s latest business figures in a tweet on Sunday. Below, check it out:
Furthermore, he said, “#SuiDhaaga biz at a glance...Week 1: ₹ 62.50 cr Weekend 2: ₹ 9.20 cr Total: ₹ 71.70 cr India biz. Decline in Weekend 2 [vis-à-vis Weekend 1]: 74.86% Note: Cinemas on strike in Madhya Pradesh in its Weekend 2”.
Anushka Sharma is quite happy with the film's box office collection and the reviews. She told news agency IANS: "I am very happy that the film has not only set the registers ringing but also received a lot of love from people, and that is paramount for us. I always believed that this film would reach the masses."
Sui Dhaaga is the story of how Mamta (Anushka Sharma) and Mauji (Varun Dhawan) make a name for themselves in the tailoring and embroidery industry. Anushka told IANS that taking up Mamta's role was 'risky' as she is completely opposite to Mamta IRL.
Sui Dhaaga opened along with Vishal Bhardwaj's Pataakha, starring Sanya Malhotra and Radhika Madan in lead roles. Pataakha collected a little over Rs. 7 crore in the same time Sui Dhaaga made close to Rs. 60 crore.
